I loved the movie, but had a problem with this also. Even the bit where Capt. Pike makes him the first officer after McCoy had just snuck him onto the ship-- I would have thought the other officers on the ship would also have been pissed!!! I understand it as a plot device, but still it seems like they could have come up with something at the end that a bit more plausible.
One other thing-- I thought that Bones was great with his mannerisms (much like Deforest Kelly), but he was the only cast member who I thought was conciously imitating his predecessor in the role. Part of it was the dialog they gave him-- too many of the old "Bones" lines..... Less would have been better and made it feel like much less a parody.....
